국제관광도시로서의 명상을 돈독히 다지고 있는 제주도. 최근 이곳의 관광업 관계자들은 물론 지역주민들은 한껏 기대감에 부풀어 올로 있다. 바로 롯데건설(주)이 시공하는 제주시티호텔이 다음 달이면 준공될 예정이기 때문이다. 실제로 이곳은 제주도 내에서 가장 높은 건축물(90m)로 탄생하면서 랜드마크 역할을 톡톡히 할 것으로 전망되고 있다. 이곳 현장은 지난 2011년 8월 구 제주일보 사옥 철거공사를 시작으로 2011년 12월부터 TOP DOWN 및 UP-UP공법을 병행하여 토공, 골조공사를 본격적으로 착수했다. 현재는 공정율 85% 수준으로 건물외부 코깅작업 및 내부 인테리어 마감작업이 진행 중이다. 이곳이 특히 주목받고 있는 이유는 롯데건설(주)의 안전관리 기술력이 집약된 또 하나의 건축물이라는 평가를 듣고 있기 때문이다. 롯데건설(주) 관계자들은 이곳에 면세점과 호텔 등 다중이용시설이 들어서기 때문에 부실시공은 곧 대형안전사고를 불러온다는 인식을 바탕으로 빈틈없는 안전시공을 해나가고 있는 것이다. 이는 물론 현장 근로자들을 대하는 안전관리에도 고스란히 나타난다. 착공부터 현재까지 무재해 100만 시간을 앞두고 있다는 점이 이를 잘 증명한다. 안전으로 제주도의 새로운 명소를 건서래 나가고 있는 롯데건설(주) 제주시티호텔 신축현장을 찾아가 봤다.

A new indoor mobile robot localization method is presented. Robot recognizes well designed single color landmarks on the ceiling by vision system, as reference to compute its precise position. The proposed likelihood prediction based method enables the robot to estimate its position based only on the orientation of landmark.The use of single color landmarks helps to reduce the complexity of the landmark structure and makes it easily detectable. Edge based optical flow is further used to compensate for some landmark recognition error. This technique is applicable for navigation in an unlimited sized indoor space. Prediction scheme and localization algorithm are proposed, and edge based optical flow and data fusing are presented. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides accurate estimation of the robot position with a localization error within a range of 5 cm and directional error less than 4 degrees.

최근 화제인 가상 아이돌의 춤 제작에 많은 자원 및 비용이 발생한다. 만일 춤을 자동으로 생성해 3D 모델에 피팅하면 이러한 비용을 줄일 수 있으며, 다양하고 복잡한 춤의 구현도 가능할 것이다. 또한, 댄스 게임을 통해 춤을 배우고 즐기는 사람들이 많지만, 경험할 수 있는 춤이 한정적이며, 모션 인식 정확도가 낮다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 트랜스포머 구조의 인공지능 모델을 통해 음악에 어울리는 3D 춤 모션을 자동으로 생성하고, 3D 자세 추정 모델을 사용해 사용자의 모션을 추정한 후, 두 모션의 유사도를 랜드마크 3D 좌표로 계산하여 판정하고자 한다. 이는 1 인 댄스 룸 또는 댄스 게임에 활용되어 발전 가능하다.

많은 사람이 사회적 문제로 인하여 대두되고 있는 스트레스 및 정신질환 문제를 해소하기 위하여 다양한 문화생활을 선택하고 있다. 그중 휴식을 제외하면 취미, 오락, 스포츠가 가장 큰 비중을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 모션 캡처를 활용하여 움직임의 변화를 인식하고 이에 따라 신디사이저 사운드를 발생시키는 시스템을 제작하였다. 해당 시스템은 악기를 대신하여 연주와 춤이 동시에 이루어져 취미와 스포츠가 결합 된 새로운 여가 활동의 가능성을 제기하며, 공연 및 아이들의 교육적 목적으로 활용되는 등 교육적, 신체적, 심리적 건강을 위하여 활용될 수 있다.

It is very important for the robot to recognize its position to accomplish numerous tasks and to go to the goal. In this paper, we suggest Location Recognition System to distinguish robot's locations using land-mark and the odometer in the environment of sensor network. All in all, we created a basic intelligent robot, Location Recognition System, and Environment Sensor Modules; we verified the proposed algorithm through computer simulation.

Effective interaction between user and device is considered an important ability of IoT devices. For some applications, it is necessary to recognize human facial expressions in real time and make accurate judgments in order to respond to situations correctly. Therefore, many researches on facial image analysis have been preceded in order to construct a more accurate and faster recognition system. In this study, we constructed an automatic recognition system for facial expressions through two steps - a facial recognition step and a classification step. We compared various models with different sets of data with pixel information, landmark coordinates, Euclidean distances among landmark points, and arctangent angles. We found a fast and efficient prediction model with only 30 principal components of face landmark information. We applied several prediction models, that included linear discriminant analysis (LDA), random forests, support vector machine (SVM), and bagging; consequently, an SVM model gives the best result. The LDA model gives the second best prediction accuracy but it can fit and predict data faster than SVM and other methods. Finally, we compared our method to Microsoft Azure Emotion API and Convolution Neural Network (CNN). Our method gives a very competitive result.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a method to improve the performance of the previous research is characterized by recognizing facial gestures from the 3D coordinates of seven landmarks selected from the MediaPipe Face Mesh model, generating corresponding user events, and executing corresponding commands. The proposed method applied adaptive moving average processing to the cursor positions in the process to stabilize the cursor by alleviating microtremor, and improved performance by blocking temporary opening/closing discrepancies between both eyes when opening and closing both eyes simultaneously. As a result of the usability evaluation of the proposed facial gesture interface, it was confirmed that the average recognition rate of facial gestures was increased to 98.7% compared to 95.8% in the previous research.

In this paper, we present a global localization and position error compensation method in a known indoor environment using magnet hall sensors. In previous our researches, it was possible to compensate the pose errors of $x_e$, $y_e$, ${\theta}_e$ correctly on the surface of indoor environment with magnets sets by regularly arrange the magnets sets of identical pattern. To improve the proposed method, new strategy that can realize the global localization by changing arrangement of magnet pole is presented in this paper. Total six patterns of the magnets set form the unique landmarks. Therefore, the virtual map can be built by using the six landmarks randomly. The robots search a pattern of magnets set by rotating, and obtain the current global pose information by comparing the measured neighboring patterns with the map information that is saved in advance. We provide experimental results to show the effectiveness of the proposed method for a differential drive wheeled mobile robot.

This paper presents design and control of an 'Omni-directional Cleaning Robot (OdCR)' which employs omni-wheels at three edges of its triangular configuration. Those omni-wheels enable the OdCR to move in any directions so that lateral movement is possible. For OdCR to be localized, a StarGazer sensor is used to provide accurate position and heading angle based on landmarks on the ceiling. In addition to that, ultrasonic sensors are installed to detect obstacles around OdCR's way. Experimental studies are conducted to test the functionality of the system.

In this paper, a method for estimating the location of a quadcopter is proposed by applying an EKF-SLAM algorithm to its flight control, to autonomously control the flight of an unmanned quadcopter. The usefulness of this method is validated through simulations. For autonomously flying the unmanned quadcopter, an algorithm is required to estimate its accurate location, and various approaches exist for this. Among them, SLAM, which has seldom been applied to the quadcopter flight control, was applied in this study to simulate a system that estimates flight trajectories of the quadcopter.
